Whoops, sorry about that. I was the one who suggested the title. Seems like I juxtapose those letters a lot.

And the weird thing is, I read the title a TON of times and didn't catch it. I read an article about this once, if you write the first and last letters correctly, you can scramble the other ones in the middle and your brain still "makes" you read the word correctly. Seems it's been proven to be true.

Yeah, that's what I was talking about. It works in portuguese as well, since I read a translation of it.
